Rihanna attended the Time 100 Most Influential People Gala last night in a strapless Marchesa Resort 2012 Gown and $1,395 Christian Louboutin Bois Dore Pumps:The hot fuchsia number features an exaggerated sweetheart neckline and an asymmetrical full tulip skirt.Her pumps are part of Christian Louboutin’s 20th anniversary collection, and feature a metallic carved wood heel.I love this look! The color is smashing, and aside from Rih’s bored expression, she looks her typical pretty self. The neckline on the dress is giving me a bit of Madonna ca Blond Ambition and she could’ve gone with a sexier shoe…but in the end, she can turn it out for a red carpet, can’t she?What do you think? See her chat here:*She later performed in a Stella McCartney Fall 2012 strapless top and trousers:Thoughts on her on stage ensemble?

Sydni says, “Claire! I’m in Love! I love June’s whole get up but these PANTS are just beyond words!”“… Could you perhaps help me get the look for less. Please and thank you. xoxo”Hey Sydni, I feel you. When I saw June at Christian Siriano, I said to myself, “I need to take notes, she looks fabulous!”Get her look by pairing a blue fedora with an Equipment shirt, then anchoring the look with turquoise pants, blue platform pumps, and a deep purple coat:More Equipment…What do you think, would you rock it?*I snapped a pic with June…Stay tuned for my Style Diary!

Happy Monday!This weekend was chock full of celeb Hmm‘s as it was Cinco de Mayo, and nobody wanted to try too hard. I know the feeling. I wore a pullover sweater out this weekend.But let’s get into it! Alicia Keys and hubby Swizz Beatz sat court side with baby Egypt at Sunday’s New York Knicks playoff game (we won!). Miss Alicia’s Jeremy Scott Keith Haring-printed moto jacket is cute and all, but her little boy is just too precious for words! Hot!Nene Leakes was spotted hanging out with her ex husband Greg. It’s good to see them getting along, even though Nene’s outfit isn’t getting along with that Birkin. Hmm…Kenya Moore stopped by the Palms Casino Resort for a Diddy fête, and unfortunately, failed to come correct. The frock would have been cute if it wasn’t schoolmarm length, and if she didn’t wear it with those bedazzled pumps. Hair and makeup are on point (with that outfit they need to be), but I’m still giving this look a Hmm…Angela Simmons, Melanie Fiona, and Rocsi Diaz showed up to Nivea’s MicahJesse.com event last Thursday, each of whom managed to underwhelm with their outfits. I love Angela’s Zara frill front dress (Hot!), but the stark black jacket and heavy shoes I think are a styling misstep on her part (Hmm…). But of course, the girl’s hair is layed like Donna Summer, and the makeup ain’t bad neither.Julissa Bermudez was also in attendance, wearing a rhinestone cowboy fringed leather top and turquoise pants. I feel like this outfit could have been more playful and aesthetically pleasing had she not added the stark black and white accents. Hmm…Flo Rida looked as if he’d been sampling Vybz Kartel‘s cake soap stash at the Palms in Las Vegas this weekend. Hmm…Common was his usual adorable self performing at Bank Nightclub in Las Vegas.Kim and Kourtney Kardahsian took a stroll with little Mason, clearly trying to avoid the invasive eyes of the paparazzi. See how they shrink from the camera in their usual comfy-but-chic fare. I want to snatch that Céline luggage tote right off Kim’s arm! Watch out gurl, I’m coming for you. Hot!Rita Ora performed at London’s G-A-Y club this weekend in those Joyrich shorts her and Rihanna‘s stylists seem to love these days. I actually dig that crystal headpiece she’s got on, but those shorts could use a little length. Makeup’s a little messy, though. Hmm…And there you have it! How did you guys spend your weekends?~Jihan

• Thanks to her growing popularity, Mary Katrantzou is matched for another collaboration, this time with luxury bag brand Longchamp. The designer’s signature digital patterns are printed on 5 different tote styles, inspired by the theme “east meets west.” The bags will pre-launch January 23rd exclusively at Colette. Are you putting these on your spring wardrobe wishlist? (Crimes of Fashion)• Lala Vazquez-Anthony tweeted a photo of the packaging from her upcoming cosmetics collaboration with Motives makeup. (Lala’s Twitter)• Christian Louboutin is designing four new tableaux for Parisian cabaret Crazy Horse’s nightly Désirs show. The designer has collaborated with the night spot in the past, creating shoes for their dancers. The tableaux will be on display from March 5 to May 31, though I’m sure the majority of Crazy Horse’s patrons will be too distracted by the multiple pairs of bare breasts to notice. (WWD)• Editor-cum-Moda Operandi artistic director Taylor Tomasi Hill is celebrating the release of her seven piece capsule collaboration with Asian luxury department store Lane Crawford. The collection is a reflection of the street style darling’s dynamic personal style, with sharply tailored pieces softened by feminine detailing like lace and floral glitter (!) patterns. The collection is available right now on the Lane Crawford website, with a relatively reasonable price range from $250 to $510. (Fashionologie)• Rihanna squats down and channels her inner dirty hipster for the cover of her newest single “Talk that Talk.” To retain her precious modesty, her clevage is partially obscured by the track title emblazoned across the shot. Tasteful. (Hello Beautiful)• For the girl who wants to “feel like a princess every day,” in some cheaply, possibly sweatshop-made shoes, Kim Kardashian has selected designed a quilted pump called “The Duchess” for her membership-based shoe site, Shoedazzle in honor of Kate Middleton‘s 30th birthday.
